hey, i have been observing my yellow lab for about a week. he has been lurking solely near the filter lately. i dont know if he's sick or not, hopefully not. but i'm kinda worry. though he has been eating well, he usually go back to the same spot again. he is with 18 other cichlids in my 50...

i guess i have much reading to do.... now that cmor1701d mentioned it.

o ic. one of my friend told me he uses those damsels to cycle the water. that's cruel yeh so i wont do that. anyways, i want a peaceful community sw tank. are clown fishes less aggressive?

and i would like damsels and clown fish in the tank. probably some blue tangs.

by the way, for that 75 gallon tank, i would like a fish only with live rocks setup.

i am planning to put out a 75 gallon tank for a start. what equipments would you suggest?

I have been in the hobby of maintaining a freshwater tank for about two years now. Can you give me tips on starting a saltwater tank. i'm planning to set up one this year. but i have to get proper parameters. tank size, fish compatibilities, ph levels...etc.

oh. ic thanks.

maintain the temp above 31 degrees celcius or above 84 degrees farenheit. Usually the rating of the heater is 200 watts for a 50 gallon tank. i used this while treating the ich in my tank. hopefully you'll get your tank ich free too.

IMO your driftwood needs be treated first. the reason why it floats is it is not water logged. You need to remove the tannic acid first in the wood before it will sink. i have mine treated for about a month before it sank. the boulders wont work. believe me i've tried that before. you need to...

I saw great severums in our lfs and i am fascinated by the good looks and the bright color of the severums. They practically look like a cross breed between a discus and a severum. The patterns are nice like the discus. i am just wondering if i can add them to my cichlid tank. I have 18-20...

what are your tank setup? gravel, filtration etc.

for me, it took me a month.

another question, if say there is one infected, can i be cured there and the ich dies forever?

Thanks. i will go and see what's the wattage of my heater. I think i will throw another heater in there.

I have been getting rid of the ich in my aquarium for about a week now. i used TetraMed and unfortunately 4 of my fishes died. My fishes are all cichlids. Though my four electric blue died, there has been no apparent sign of the ich in the remaining 18-20 cichlids. i have conducted a complete...

can you tell us the parameters of your tank? anyway, the best thing so far for curing those ich is to raise the temperature to 84oF for two weeks. gets rid of the fungus as well without the hazard of those meds. since they are cichlids, they can endure temperature as such. then after the last...

that's sad to hear

oscars are aggressive but i like the patterns on the skin. though they sulk sometimes i agree. and they grow really fast

What is an ick? is that the same as the water ich? because currently my clown loaches have water ich and i am treating them with malachite green which i bought in a lfs. they have been in medication for three days now and is doing fine. the lfs staff told me that the rumor regarding the clown...

Yeh he's right. I think the underfeeding thing is right due to the aggressiveness. I'm not sure if what i am about to share is relevant now but i will share it anyway. I have one Jewel cichlid a week ago but have died just this friday. He was the only one of his own kind in my 50 gal tank of 20...

This is the setup for the tank in my gallery. I just wanted to ask if anything is wrong with this setting. Filtration: Fluval 304/Rio 1700 w/spongefilter Air Pump: TetraTec AP200, Bubble Tube Wall Heater: Hagen Thermal Compact 300W Lighting: 1-48" Coralife Actinic Blue...

What tank do you have? Can you describe the set up of your tank? Because based on what i have read you can place lightings in an aquarium with a wattage of 2 watts/ gallon. But they also say that that will change depending on your tank setup for example... if it planted...etc. I think plants...
